restoration Ferret - Differential/Transfer box

[joeferret]

I'm guessing by also saying 2nd from the left......I think 2nd gear????????????

I would say in picture 2, you can see the hook holding the band is standing way off, so its that gear...maybe 1st? I have a feeling it cannot be top gear as all bands are engaged in that gear?

I may be totally wrong on both counts, and be banned from the forum for talking rubbish....goodnight!!

 

I have to admit, I always toggled the gears in mine, and made sure it was in neutral before starting...surely you would have smelt something (not you...whoever left it running)!!!

Its the one on the far left as there is less thread showing in the adjuster nut. My guess is probably (I haven't looked at the manual) the 4th gear clutch pack.

Its this one at the very front, look at the thickness of the band at the bottom of the curve and the depth of the rivets.

There is a right and wrong way to fit the springs one way you struggle and curse the other you look at the bottom of the bands and you realise that the spring pushes against the longer side of the web / casting.

Fit the bands in order and move the band around to push the spring into place and do the same for the other side.
